I have been close to the building repair and maintainance business for 40 years and still don't have the answers. I believe you are right about them finding something better. I consider myself trustworthy and honest but finishing a job where I have recieved most or all the pay just knocks the wind out of my sail. I have never took the money and not finished but I can see where a contractor would if he was not self disiplained. Lesson,never let the money get ahead of work,do draws on large jobs. If a contractor can't buy material and pay his employees and subs,don't hire them. Everyone says "get it on a writen contract". That's good advice but a scope of work is just as important.

I am courious what the procedure is when a contractor is given a bad review. It's common knowledge that some people will never be pleased regardless how well the job is done. I'm wondering if A.L. has a review panel to make sure reviews are acruate and fair.
